Story

"Dragon's Crown" is an action fantasy RPG in the vein of "Princess Crown" and "Odin Sphere", married with gamemaster-style storytelling as seen in "Etrian Odyssey". With a strong focus on high-fantasy, a new era of adventure now begins."

"The paths that lead people to this land are manifold and varied, but they share a single goal. Now you have journeyed here to brave the dangerous, monster-ridden dungeons. Daring adventurers from far and wide have come to face the labyrinths on the outskirts of town, and you are joining their ranks. You must first gather a strong party. No one adventurer will be able to overcome these trials alone. Let us begin your journey... I wish you good luck."

Characters

Fighter

Experts in battle, outfitted with full-plate armor and a sturdy shield. Boasting the stoutest defence of all classes, their shields can protect all allies in the nearby area. Their one-handed weapons have short reach, but the can swing them quickly, allowing them to make short work of nearby foes.

Amazon

Dauntless warriors who know no fear as they effortlessly wield their two-handed weapons. Their massive equipment delivers vicious blows that deal lethal damage to multiple foes at once. Lightly armored, they are agile fighters who rely on punishing kicks when unarmed.

Wizard

Male magicians who have a wealth of magic at their beck and call. Unable to fend off monsters with strength, they instead rely on their spells, and are vital assets for any adventure.

Elf

A long-lived forest race who are often much older then they appear to human eyes. While slight of body, they are deadly masters of the bow and arrow, using their superior athleticism to fight nimbly and fearlessly from a distance.

Dwarf

Stocky fighters whose muscular frames permit them to wield a weapon in each hand. Their strength lets them pick up and throw anything in sight, even heavy foes. Throwing enemies lets them damage multiple foes with one fling laying waste to an entire horde of adversaries.

Sorceress

Bewitching women with knowledge of dark magic. They are weak of body, but the great knowledge they wield of the arcane arts cannot be ignored. Sorceresses can create delicious food, control skeletons, and turn foes into harmless frogs. A jack-of-all-trades support class, they can provide aid to their friends in countless ways.

I love you Atlus.
I was pretty sad when I saw this game dropped. But Atlus came along and picked it up and made it anew. Thank you Atlus for giving us another great game much like Muramasa and Odin Sphere. Both very great games and I'm quite positive this game will be as awesome as the others.

Great game!
RJJR, I'm not disrespecting you, but this is a great game. Graphics, customize your character the way you want, and coop with your friends. This game is great. I also wonder, why you gave it a two?

Excellent Hack and Slash
D and D was recently re-released on the PSN network, this game is an absolute homage to those games of yesteryear. The graphics are gorgeous, the soundtrack is excellent, and the gameplay is superb. If you have a group of friends to play with, it is all the better, but even as a one player game it is an excellent play through. The battle system is simple to pick up, but increases in difficultly as the game progresses, as any well made game should. Pick this game up now, support these types of titles so that we can continue to have A+ quality 2D hand drawn titles.

A breath of fresh air for the 2D brawler genre
Dragon's Crown is a 2D side-scrolling brawler with a medieval theme brought to life by beautiful hand-drawn art. At start, you can choose between one of 6 character classes: Warrior, Dwarf, Amazon, Elf, Wizard, and Sorceress. Using a town as your central hub, you'll embark to dungeons individually; gaining levels and collecting loot as the story unravels. Up to 4 players can battle at a time--online or offline. If you choose to play by yourself, you can fill out your party with NPCs via bones you'll collect on your travels--although they have a nasty habit of stepping on traps a lot.
If you've ever played Capcom's Dungeons & Dragons games from the mid 90s, you know what to expect here. Scroll from left to right and slash up fantasy-based minions on your way to the boss. Yes, Dragon's Crown is indeed an arcade game at heart...but unfortunately, it tries to hide that fact with tons of dialogue in the town, menus, and other stumbling blocks in the name of longevity (this gimmick essentially extends the game from 5 hours long to about 20 hours). There are only about 9 stages, but they get recycled about halfway through the game--forcing you to take an alternate path in order to collect talismans to defeat the dragon. Add that to the fact that you'll be revisiting these areas anyway to level grind / complete guild missions, and you'll see it gets old quick.
I really want to give Dragon's Crown a 10/10. The visuals are beautifully drawn, and the gameplay is varied and satisfying. If they only trimmed the fat and didn't try to extend the game with unneeded dialogue and repetition, I certainly would have given it a better score (a few more levels wouldn't have hurt, either). Still, it's a grand ol' tribute to 2D games of days gone by and deserves at least one full playthrough.

Cross buy?
Really hoping this game will have the cross buy option, game looks good but not worth buying twice..

Awesome game all-around
Picked this game up the day it came out...it's been an all-around blast to play. My husband and I had been waiting for a co-op RPG to play on PS3, and this will definitely satisfy us til the PS4 comes out!

Great Game!
Its a great game for those who like the genre, it's loot mechanics honestly a main reason why I'm hooked on this game! It's a game for either casual or hardcore gamers. It's easy to pick up and play but there are higher difficulties that will keep you hooked on this game for a long time! Well worth your $55!
